Resonance

Resonance is the tendency of a system to oscillate with greater amplitude at some frequencies than at others. (source: Wikipedia )

Electrical Circuits with a Natural Frequency

  • Step 1: Open the Circuit Construction Kit, linked below. (If this does not work, follow this link and Run Now.)
Circuit Construction Kit (DC Only)
Click to Run

  • Step 2: Drag a document from my Teachers folder to your Desktop. It is called TI_RadioTuner.cck . DO NOT DOUBLE-CLICK IT!!
  • Step 3: Within the Circuit Construction Kit, choose Load and find the TI_RadioTuner.cck file.
  • Step 4: Flip the switch back and forth and measure the frequency of the electrical circuit.
  • Step 5: Change either the Capacitance or Inductance, and make another measurement of frequency.
  • Step 6: Repeat step 5 in order to produce a table of data for five different settings.
  • Step 7: Record your data in the Google Form at this link.
